Tonight-Shoot the Moon. The SuperMoon

[Joanne ~ Spud*]

We have an on going discussion in the photography group.  Shoot the Moon.  Many of these shots were taken with a telephoto lens.  Not tonight.  All you need is a regular camera or even your cell phone.  I'll be taking the music of Nora Jones with me ( thank you Donna).  Here is the music.

There are a lot of old legions about the SuperMoon: going insane, going blind.. anyway, it is powerful. 

BRIAN WILLIAMS explains in this next video about the Supermoon

Try to capture Scale and join us  with your pictures in the discussion.

Even if you don't feel like taking pictures, enjoy a beautiful evening outside with your dogs. 

Here is how: 

The moon will rise at 9:35 EST tonight.  The first hour or two is the best for capturing the moon.

[F, Calla & Luca]

LOL!! This looks exactly like my moon efforts except you obviously held the camera steady. OK I'll give the moon one more glance but no photos and probably no moon.

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

I many submit this in a Photography contest...LOL!!

[Elizabeth, Bailey & Bruin]

The moon in mine looks like a blurry blob...at least the reflection on the water is pretty...

[F, Calla & Luca]

It is.

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

At least you can see your moon :) Very pretty!!!

[Jarka, Monty & Auggie]

LOL, I think your moon is even smaller that it usually is, Laurie. Really cloudy and windy here, I guess no moon sightings tonight for me.

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

LOL, Jarka!! Well, I did see the moon. Too bad, my picture does not seem to reflect that it was big :)

[Linda, Charlie Brown and Beau]

Your story made me laugh and that always makes me feel terrific.  Thanks -I love it!

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

I laughed all the way into the house. I need a lot of help with that camera...LOL!! Glad you laughed, too!!

[Donna K & Quincy]

Laurie, That is the tiniest moon I have ever seen. LOL, You do get points for putting in the effort.

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

Thank you!!  I renamed my camera something tonight, but I can't print it here....LOL!

[Jane, Guinness and Murphy]

it looks like the tree branches got in the way of the big moon...LOL.  Never mind, Laurie....you're lucky you even got a picture of Super Moon....nothing put clouds here.
